What Value Is Proxymity Delivering?
Sponsored by:
a. Complete data, delivered instantly
With Proxymity, 100% of beneficial owners receive full meeting details in real time, either through API, SWIFT ISO formats or the platform itself. This eliminates the need to source missing PDFs, request additional context or cross check announcement details.
In practical terms, investors gain immediate access to the entire meeting pack, enabling faster research and earlier engagement.
b. Zero votes lost
Previously, 75% of investors said votes were regularly lost or caught in the custody chain. Under the new model, votes are passed directly with no manual re keying, spreadsheets or fax based processes. This results in zero lost votes.
Custodians emphasised the operational relief. “We no longer spend hours reconciling what the registry thinks we submitted. It is automated from end to end.”
c. A step change in timeliness
Timeliness was one of the greatest pain points in the legacy process.
Before: only 8% of meeting notifications were published within 24 hours
Now: 93% are published within one business day
Announcements arriving earlier gives investors more time to review, escalate, seek internal approvals and engage with issuers. Several noted that this alignment with real time decision cycles “brings proxy voting into the same world as every other part of modern finance”, and recent benchmarks show that event data can now be captured and transmitted to investors in as little as 20 seconds.
